His Rogue Mate He is.
Connor. I took in a breath to prepare for what I had to say next. I was going to tell her everything about the past, everything that I had failed in.It had crossed my mind last night before I fell asleep. Despite all my speaking I had barely communicated and I didn't trust. The fear of her leaving after this was still there, but I wasn't going to let it stop me.“When I was younger, there were three of us, the future Alphas Beta and Gamma raised together. Me, Isabella and… Darius.”It took effort to say his name, I and my entire family, the pack as a whole, had done our best to erase him from our existence. Even his own mother. Mentioning him was like conjuring a spirit.At times the memories of the past and our childhood came up, but it was always embittered by everything that happened next, who he became mI could tell her confusion from the way her brows furrowed at the last name. It was easy to predict what question she was thinking about. She was expecting me to mention Ralph c
His Rogue Mate Overthinking things.
Connor. There was a sharp intake of breath. She looked . Her gaze was glassy and foggy, like she was in a trance.“Karina?” fear crept up my throat instantly. The urge to go to her, comfort her.What was happening to her?A small sound suddenly came and I drifted to the bundle in her arms, moving furiously. Levi had made that noise but didn't cry. Was she holding him tight?That seemed to be the wake up call for her. She looked down and hushed Levi, cooing softly at him. I watched in silence as she silently laid him beside her, loosening the wrap before settling back to face me. When she looked up the glassy stare was gone. “Continue.” I blinked in surprise at the sound of her voice. She sounded hardened, anger and bitterness lying underneath it. Her gaze was stony, jaw hardened.Any woman would feel the same at a heinous action. Yet a deadly thought lurked in the back of my mind. Was it solely because of Isabella or was it from something deeper?Bile welled up against my tongue at

Connor. There it was, I had placed the verdict on myself. I closed my eyes and looked away from her.Everything that happened after; finally stripping Darius of the Beta position and watching him get humiliated by the pack, living separated from the rest of us felt like hollow victories. It didn't matter if the Council made a decision by then or if the pack members prostrated for a public apology, because she was gone. They could move on easily with the depth of the guilt without her to haunt them.Neither of Isabella's parents came out weeks after she'd left. I'd overheard whispers that it was out of shame or fear if the pack scrutiny —Rumours that I threatened in order to quell. I knew it was solely out of grief. Grief for losing a daughter they had only reunited with. My parents also grieved in their own way. My mother had done her best to quell the rumours, calling all the servants to ensure no lips went. She retreated into her shell, turning frosty and it was only my presence t
His Rogue Mate I'll be there.
Karina.After almost an hour of peaceful reprieve, it was the trills of a ringtone that ended it. I opened my eyes slowly. Even though I wasn't completely asleep my mind had relaxed somewhat until the noise came but I could tell that it wasn't from my phone.I sat up just in time to see Connor take out the phone from his pocket to receive the call. “Yeah?” He spoke. There was silence for a few moments. I couldn't tell what the other person said and even though I could have easily heightened my hearing to do so, I wouldn't. It wouldn't concern me anyways.Instead, I focused on the contours of his face. He looked slightly more relaxed and dare I say, peaceful.“I'll be there.” He said.By the time he turned off the call I could easily guess what would come next from those three words.“Its Ralph,” he said, “hes telling him to come over to the pack site.”He was reluctant to go. I could see it in the way his eyes shifted at me. He was reluctant to destroy the peaceful lightness we had r
His Rogue Mate Are you the future Luna?
KarinaNot following him meant I would have to leave without him. Apparently the site they were referring to was on the farther side of the pack, opposite the direction of his home, meaning I would have to find my way home by myself.He looked even more unwilling to do so, So I steeled myself to snap at him lightly.“I’m not a child and I'm not completely helpless. Just give me the directions and I'll be fine.” I said.Before Connor left he gave me a different, more discrete set of directions to move through to avoid meeting anyone and the pack's prying gaze at large. His wariness was evident and I could understand why after everything he'd said. It soothed me even.I wandered the meadow for twenty more minutes after he'd left before I made my move. His directions were lodged directly at the forefront of my mind and I was always good at tracking so I didn't fear losing my way. The walk back rather let my mind veer towards other thoughts, especially the most recent ones.I was stuck
His Rogue Mate It's not you.
Karina ‘Future Luna.’ Goodness, I was already tired of hearing it. She looked at me expectantly while I was reeling from the sidedness.I was stiff but nodded. There was no use denying it.Everything that happened next was…unexpected to say the least.“Oh. Oh shit.” She suddenly cursed to my surprise, stumbling back. She shook her head frantically looking at me wide eyed.“I'm so sorry. I've been on guard duty at the border for the past two weeks and this was my day off. I only heard the news but I hadn't seen you. I just realised…oh Goddess.” She whimpered the last part out, shaking her head once more and turning away from me. I could only watch in stunned silence.“Stupid, stupid. Goddess I'd just embarrassed myself in front of…shit. Ralph's going to get a laugh with this one.” She kept rambling now, seemingly aimed at herself.I was bewildered at the sudden twist of events, blinking as she spoke to herself. When she began pacing I finally broke out of my shock to speak.“Excuse m
His Rogue Mate Who is that?
KarinaAfter that, all the tension from earlier seems to seep away. She didn't speak a word for a moment, but peeked at the bundle in my arms several times.A minute or so passed before her voice came.“Is that Alpha Connor's baby?” she asked.I stiffly nodded, “Yeah.”Another pause came, this time lasting for half a minute before she spoke “Can I ask what his name is?”“Levi.” I quickly replied, nodding slightly. She hummed and looked away. My insides clenched. Maybe I wasn't being too forthcoming.“How old are you?” I finally asked, turning to her.Her head turned towards me and she blinked in surprise.“Twenty years old. I just turned two months ago.” She said tentatively though her gaze glittered slightly. She seemed excited that I was asking her questions.I couldn't fully read her. She was wary at first but turned a complete 180 at knowing my identity. She was young and seemed to wear her heart on her sleeve. I couldn't find a hint of ingenuity in her actions.The change I cou
His Rogue Mate Dangerous.
My breath hitched as I recognized her. She was hanging on a tree on her own, yet didn't look bothered. About the height.It's dangerous height. How on earth did she even get there?I was moving before I could think, pulling Levi closer while my heart hammered in my chest. Nobody else was in sight. If she hadn't seen her…By the time I reached , she fell and I wanted to scream before Harriet's frame came into view. She'd caught her.Relief instantly flooded me as I came closer. Harriet put her to the ground.“That was dangerous! Where is your mother? Goddess, what if you'd gotten hurt? Goddess.” Harriet was speaking, her voice raised a full octave higher, her hands were threading through her red locks and I could practically feel the panic bleeding from her.The closer I came I could see the young girl clearly. She was staring blankly at Harriet before she caught my gaze. “Miss Karina!” She squealed, quickly recognizing me. Before I could think she ran past Harriet and towards me.As
